[@neville4451]

Nice work yet again man. Try and find a way to leave your mark on your hard work. It would be so satisfying for you me thinks. Maybe inlay into your wooden handles..like your initials HA?? You're already really good at doing the inlays the way you do them...🤔 🇦🇺🙋‍♂️🇦🇺

[@MakerHA]

Thank you my friend. Yes, I'm about to make my own logo and mark it on the steel so it doesn't disappear easily 👍👍👍

[@dragonthibodeau419]

What specifically made this a winter knife , excellent work by the way

[@MakerHA]

The name was just a feeling I got when I first held it after it was ready. She conveyed a certain coldness to me, hence the name. 👍👍👍

[@humbertoretamales4588]

Beautiful blade. In app 10.35 you dipped the blade twice. What liquid was that?

[@MakerHA]

Thank you very much my friend, the product I dipped was iron perchloride, to make the blade dark and the other is water with sodium bicarbonate, to neutralize the action of the iron perchloride acid.👍👍👍

[@brunogoehner3078]

Sehr viel Handarbeit! Aber wieder ein wunderschönes Messer!! 👍👍

[@MakerHA]

Ja, es gibt einige, die viel Handarbeit haben, die viel Zeit in Anspruch nimmt, aber am Ende lohnt es sich. 👍👍👍

[@Kurogane_666]

Any chance you can tell us the dimensions on the blade? I love the design so much

[@MakerHA]

Of course! Blade length: 215mm - width: 40mm - thickness: 8mm - Handle length: 120mm 👍👍👍

[@mishostrezov]

Looks beautiful, yeah, but... Epoxy on guard? No pommel fixing ?

[@MakerHA]

Thank you very much, yes, to facilitate the manufacture of the guard on the back of it, I usually drill a larger hole than necessary, so it is easy and there is less wall to machine. This creates a cavity which is filled with epoxy. As for the pommel, it was not necessary as it has a pin on the handle, which holds and fixes everything in place. 👍👍👍

[@ryanblystone5153]

Thank you for sharing

[@MakerHA]

You're welcome my friend 👍👍👍

[@khankankan]

What did you use to blacken the blade?

[@MakerHA]

It is an acid, it is called ferric perchloride or hydrochloric acid. You buy it in powder or already diluted in water. And to neutralize the action of the acid I use sodium bicarbonate 👍👍👍

[@vaidormirvaiguerreiro]

trabalho excelente

[@MakerHA]

Muito obrigado meu amigo 👍👍👍

[@vince38curious2]

I'm thinking the point of this knife Strikes like a Snake with most of the Weight Centered near the Handle !! Nice Job with minimal Tools..!! Regards, Vince ADF Spec-Ops 1989-1996 Retired, Now A Soldier For FREEDOM TRUTH AND FAMILY !!

[@cae2487]

Good looking knife but seems a tad thick is there a reason you didn't forge it somewhat thinner or grind away some of it to reduce the weight

[@MakerHA]

Thank you my friend. There's no specific reason, I just made it a little thicker so the lines are more visible 👍👍👍

[@nivesknight]

Could have taken care of the bend during the tempering

[@zobiya17]

You should try to crown your pulley wheels to prevent the belt from slipping out of alignment so much.

[@MakerHA]

Yes yes, I am in the process of improving my sander, it is sliding a lot to one side and the other 👍👍👍

[@dss-homemadestuff8580]

Nice knife. =) But why is it called "Winter Knife"???

[@MakerHA]

Thank you my friend. The name has no meaning of its own, it does not mean that it is for use in winter, it is simply a knife that has a coldness, resuming the feeling of cold, so winter 👍👍👍

[@dss-homemadestuff8580]

@@MakerHA 😁👍

[@Synysta_Aka_Syn]

I was actually wondering that too 😂😂 pretty nice analogy to the name after seeing your response

[@MakerHA]

@@Synysta_Aka_Syn 😂😂 😂 Thank you so much my friend. Sometimes I make knives that just don't have a name, so we have to wait to be ready to see what feeling it conveys.

[@Synysta_Aka_Syn]

@@MakerHA I get that I make knives too and I'm like wtf am I gonna call this?? Lol.

Mais uma vez me faz um presente por favor?

[@MakerHA]

Mais uma vez, quem sabe... 👍👍👍

[@nivesknight]

To much play in the guard. Start smaller and scale up slowly while test fitting....

[@nivesknight]

No glue!!!!!

[@fettmaneiii4439]

as soon as the blue dye comes out... lol. I loose respect. Forge the blade for the love of God! Have some balls.
